Now the dealer has offered me the paint protection thing, its done by Complete Care (Gold Coast Dealer), but Im not sure it really does anything/is worth it?Anyone else had experience with this sort of thing?btw it cost $990 for paint protection, fabric (all interior) protection and window tint.cheers guys Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/72059-dealer-paint-protection/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not the magical product they'd have you believe it is.

Bob the tinter (in syd) will tint our cars for 220.

It's not the magical product they'd have you believe it is.yeh this is what I though, I have access to every car care product under the moon at cost price (from work) so I might as well look after it all myself and just get the tint done, dealer has tint for 295, which is expensive for a ute (btw its a ute im gettin...) so would it be best to find a reputable tinter and get it a little cheaper?cheers guys Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/72059-dealer-paint-protection/#findComment-1061938 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either that or screw them down...once the aftermarket chick with massive knockers realises you're not going to get sucked in with the overpriced crap she'll probably still want to make some sort of a sale and might even do the tint for two hungee - what are you getting?
